Testimonials

”My most memorable project at SUTD was taking “Introduction to design” with the pioneer batch in 2013 when I was still at Singapore Polytechnic. I will not forget the passion and drive that everyone had. We designed a science exhibition for Singapore Science Centre and I really enjoyed the open ended nature of the project where we were able to do almost anything we wanted. With the guidance of our faculty and Fabrication Lab staff, we were able to fabricate almost anything we could imagine. Through this experience, I was introduced to SUTD. Its unique curriculum and the hands-on learning environment attracted me to eventually apply to SUTD.”

“Amsterdam is known for their ‘Blue City’ model where they achieved zero nett energy from all its sectors. The integration between work and life is something that I apply to my current work. But this global exposure is not just for postgraduates. For example, during my freshmore year, we tackled the lack of access to clean water in developing countries, something that most Singaporeans have never experienced.”

“SUTD gave us industry exposure through real-life projects that we worked on. For example, in my first year I worked on a project with Changi Airport Group (CAG) on enhancing the taxi boarding efficiency.  This gave us a good opportunity to apply what we were learning during that term on a real life problem. Another experience that was useful in preparing  me for the working world was my capstone project where we worked in a multidisciplinary team on a project for a pharmaceutical company. Focusing on our areas of strength, we did an analysis of their syringes to make them more cost effective, which is crucial for developing markets.

“The internship experience was fantastic. BP gave us a lot of opportunities to learn on the job through job shadowing, lunch and learn sessions and even external field trips. I picked up a lot about trading in the oil and gas industry and was able to improve my coding ability. As I often had to work on multiple projects at once, I learnt how to manage time and expectations well, and how to work smart.”

”I have always wanted to learn more about industrial controls while I am in SUTD. The project-based education here made me very curious about how industrial settings would change the way we do projects. As such, I feel that the most valuable lesson that I have learnt from internship is the industrial perspective of looking at problems. One example would be the importance of standard code of practise. The control industry is ruled with standards and codes of practise which helps make multi-party cooperation possible.”

”Being part of Keysight’s Product Security team, I worked on turning innovative ideas into robust software, solving complex design and implementation problems. In my project, I designed a vulnerability research and analysis tool to assess project design risks using publicly available databases. In this process, I investigated new technologies and applications, and applied modern software engineering practices to ensure secure development methodology and mechanisms for Keysight products.”
